If you want facial contouring in Golders Green, our private clinic in Finchley offers advanced treatments nearby. We’re near Finchley Central Station, just two stops from Golders Green on the Northern Line. We focus on high quality dermal fillers to shape the jawline, chin, and cheeks, helping you look balanced and refreshed. We aim for subtle, natural results that suit your facial features.

When to Seek Facial Contouring

Dermal fillers offer a non surgical way to adjust your facial structure. You may be a good candidate if you want a sharper jawline or more projection in your chin to improve your side profile. It’s also good for restoring volume to the cheeks, which lifts the mid face and can create a younger look. Many people from Golders Green choose this treatment to address age related volume loss or to improve balance and symmetry without surgery downtime.

What Happens During a Facial Contouring Treatment?

The process starts with a 30 minute consultation to discuss goals and assess your facial anatomy. On the day, the area is cleaned and a topical numbing cream is applied for comfort. The treatment takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Using a fine needle or cannula, the clinician injects filler to build structure and volume. Results are visible immediately, and we review progress with you to ensure a balanced, natural finish.

Recovery & Aftercare: What to Expect

Recovery is minimal. You may notice mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites, usually gone within a few days. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and extreme heat for the first 24 to 48 hours to let the filler settle. Avoid applying firm pressure to treated areas. Most daily activities can resume right away. Red flags: call during office hours Mon Wed Fri 9 to 5, Tue Thu 11 to 7. For emergencies outside these hours contact NHS 111 or go to the nearest A and E.

Comparing Your Treatment Choices: Fillers vs. Surgery

Dermal fillers provide a strong non surgical option. Fillers last typically 12 to 18 months, are minimally invasive with little downtime, and suit those wanting subtle changes without the commitment or risks of surgery. The cost is also lower upfront. Surgical options such as chin implants or a facelift offer longer lasting results but involve longer recovery, higher costs and the risks of general anaesthesia. It is best for those seeking more dramatic, lasting changes. During your consultation, we can help you choose the approach that fits your goals.

Making an Informed Choice: Questions to Ask

To decide what fits you, whether with us or another clinic in the London area, ask about the filler type and brand, the practitioner's qualifications, how long results last, risks and side effects, total cost including follow ups, and view before and after photos of previous patients you have treated.

Costs & Financial Information

Facial contouring is a private cosmetic procedure and is not covered by dental insurance. The cost depends on the amount and type of dermal filler required to achieve your desired look. Prices for facial contouring treatments typically start from £350 per 1ml syringe. A full jawline or cheek enhancement may require multiple syringes. For example, a complete treatment could range from £400 to over £700. We provide a precise, transparent quote during your initial consultation with no hidden fees, so you can make a fully informed decision.
